  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We are presently investigating various schemes for quenched cooling in 3D, which should give sub-recoil temperatures and higher transfer efficiencies. Such samples should produce significant improvement in the performance of optical frequency standards as well as open the door to other applications, enabling efficient loading of dipole traps and higher phase space densities.
